My 'cloudy' hobby is trying to run CdC on Ubuntu.

Try as I might, I can't get it to run on my custom-built Juno.

It ran on my old Lenovo ...

That's nice. As I don't know track sizes, how tall is the mill so I can get an idea of scale?

My cloudy hobbies are tidying up after the kids and Xbox. No Man's Sky (which has a possible 18 quintillion procedurally generated planets to explore) and Starfield provide a bit of space fun 😁

Nice one Ron. By the look of the weather forecast you’ll soon get it finished.

Is that O gauge? I remember regularly  visiting Derby Museum on Saturday mornings as a young teenager to see their O gauge Midland Railway model running. I wonder if it is still there?

I used to do that too Clive, I loved it. I think it got moved to the Museum of Making.
